ARLIS/NA 2010 Conference Press Release (2) The time draws nigh and registration is now open! In just two months the Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) will hold its 38th annual conference: Boston 2010, Revolution and Innovation: at the Hub of Discovery. The conference is scheduled from April 23-26, 2010; sessions, convocation, exhibits and of course, parties will take place in the Boston World Trade Center, connected by a pedestrian ramp to the Seaport Hotel, where our guests will reside. Public transportation connecting you to all of Boston and nearby Cambridge is available less than a block from the hotel. Sessions will be centered around five themes: The Future of Art and Visual Resources Librarianship; Collection Development; Emerging Technologies; Reference and Instruction; and Visual Resources. Tours will be offered to Providence, R.I., Salem and Williamstown, MA, as well as the North End for an eating tour, and the South End for a tour of local artists’ galleries. In between will be tours of historic landmarks such as Mt. Auburn Cemetery, Olmstead’s parks and modern houses in Lincoln. Workshops to be offered include: Designing & Building the Right Channel for Online Instruction, Successful Job Searches and Career Transition, Strategies for Supporting New Technologies in the Arts Library, and others. Along with the usual social events, Boston is preparing a special Saturday night extravaganza, Saturday Night Revolution: Party with Performance! This will feature local artists and performers. As usual, we expect to see many exhibitors and attendees from all over North America, as well as Europe. In addition, the exhibits area will showcase a number of local Boston area book artists.
